I received a quote from a salesman for $16,000. For 14 average-sized double-hung 2-pane windows. He said they use only Simonton, but he claimed that his windows are made especially for his company and cannot be found on the Simonton website. He claimed that he was giving us a 40% discount on labor because he wanted to make our house a model house.

Amazing how some scams go on forever. Rent the movie "Tin Men" sometime, it's a great movie starring Richard Dreyfus and Danny Devito, in which siding salesmen scam homeowners by telling them that they are going to use their house as a "model" home for advertising.

This was an over the phone quote from a company I was referred to by multiple friends who are very experienced with home remodeling. They'll inspect my home tonight to get a more accurate quote. The quote, more specifically, was $500 for a 27X55 Simonton Platinum window including installlation. I have 14 Windows.
